Good day.
Lately I noticed that the machine waits about 5 seconds to move to tge next toolpath.
What can be the cauae of this.?..if I recall it not do this when the machine was new.
Tnx.
There’s always been a couple sec delay between tool paths for me. Never timed it. 5 sec seems long though.
Yep, mine has always paused for a few seconds between toolpaths as well.
This is caused by the M3 command and is designed to give your spindle time to ramp up or down in RPM so when the next toolpath starts it is spinning at correct RPM. You can manually remove all but the first M3 commands (you will need one in the begining of the program to turn the spindle on initially). To remove them edit g code and then CTRL+F to find “M3” and delete them.
